The Bride of Frankenstein

Summary

Just in time for Halloween, Mike and Dan talk about a favorite: James Whale's 1935 sequel, The Bride of Frankenstein. Topics include the sins of Dr. Praetorius, how the film anticipates the sequels to which we've become accustomed, and why (according to Mike), this sequel is better than its predecessor--kind of like how many people feel about The Godfather, Part II. Other films mentioned include Pinocchio, The Matrix, and Jaws. So sit down for some bread, some wine, and a smoke before she shrieks at you!
